street. D. L. Kellogg, a reporter OF
the New York Sun, now rushed behind
| O'Brien's back 10 warn him when Is
| stone struck O'Brien's hat and knocked
1t OF. O'Brien stopped mis- head, and
John Wall, who was standing by his side
lifted his head to look in the direction,
when huge stone struck him on the
side of the head and tumbled him
HEELS OVER HEAD.
He reeled in Johnson's Lane, little alle7
running off Bay street, and fell upon 8
heap of stones. Dennis kilbride, Mr..
Teefy, treasurer of . the National
league, and Mr.. May, telegraph
operator, lifted him up and carried
him into Hooper's drug store, where his
wound was dressed, and he was then
helped to the Rossin house. The cut
made by the stone is two inches long, and
slightly above the left temple.
"Take care of this man." said MIR.
Teefey, addressing the policeman, she is
wounded"
"Let him take care of himself" re-
turned the policeman, "what does he
want heIe?" O'Brien and his friends
then turned into Wellington street.
Stones were still flying and the
yells and groans were louder if
possible than ever. O'Brien attempted
to take refuge in Sharp's laundry, and,
failing in that, rushed into the bicycle
store Of Thos. Lalor, Jr., adjoining. A
volley Of stones shattered the windows,
and the mob burst into the store yelling like
demons, and showering missiles in the
direction which O'Brien had taken
towards the end of the store. Some
ladies end old men screamed and tainted,
while the mob tumbled pell nell
heller SHELTER over bicycles and other
machinery and smashed them one against
the other in their savage fury.
CHANG him." "Lansdowne forever"
they yelled. O'Brien, however, was
safely led away by G. Cassman, an official,
and reached the hotel in safety. d. ?.
Cahill was knocked down snd received
two dangerous cuts from broken bottles,
and was more or less severely injured.
Layers store was completely wrecked
and several hundred dollars worth of
property destroyed. Two more police
men appeared, making four in ali in the
presence of a crowd of fully 1000 rioters,
who had possession of the streets at least
half hour throwing bricks, etc, at the
group of men. Treasurer Teefy of the
local branch league sent out the follow
ing telegram to the leaders of the league
in New York and Chicago: O'Brien
was mobbed in the streets of Toronto by
Orangemen. j. M. Wall of the New York
Tribune seriously wounded. Police
Sergeant Adair got cut in the head and
and when his three comrades saw this
they moved away to respectful distance
and let the mob do as they pleased. Up to
midnight the neighborhOod of the Rossin
house was filled with the mob, who
groned and yelled to their hearts content,
but as there was not at any time
an opposing crowd the rioters grew
tired and hoarse, began to abuse each
other and fight among themselves, and
with cries of "Away with the
Traitorl" and "God save the Queen"
Mr.. O'Brien said to an Associated Press
"LansdoWDe has now
done his worst. His policemen abso-
lutely surrendered US to the mob, and had
we not taken refuge in the bicycle store,
would have been killed"
A deputation came here to-day from
st. GATHERINGS. They pressed the editorot
United Ireland very hard to attend meet
ing there. O'Brien said he would do so.
He has added Hamilton to his list, where
occur, speaking there Monday,
the 23rd. He will speak at OttOwa
tomorrow and Kingston Friday. He
declares tonight that be will certainly go
to st. GATHERINGS and the more the
Orangemen oppose him the longer he
will stay in Canada.
